A very tough market encourages scammers and empty promises... (by Jan M.):
We have a timeshare in CA on the beach. We received a call from Host timeshares indicating that our timeshare which they did have the name of had indicated we called in November asking about selling out timeshare, which we had. We were asked for a title transfer fee. When asked why it could not come off of the sale which all our other property sales had done, we were told it was illegal to do so because we were selling time space not real property and only realty companies could do that. Time Share Title Services then said they needed a money order as they no longer accepted credit cards and as soon as they received it they would release the title. They then called and said they had received the check from Host and as soon as the money order was received they would direct deposit the check and we could stay on the line with them while we called the bank to verify the deposit. We're hesitate but not sure if it is legitimate.
